HUNTER COLLEGE–Students and professors alike are confused about the current attendance policy at Hunter, and the confusion seems to go as far up as the dean level, as interviews with a dozen sources have discovered. Many students were told at the start of the semester that attendance could no longer be counted towards grades.
However, the official policy in the 2018-19 course catalog states that while CUNY schools are “not attendance-taking institutions,” professors may indeed use attendance to calculate grades, as has been the past practice.
